MLB 09: The Show - The System Seller?

[shpankey]

the show 08 sold me on ps3 all by itself. been extremely happy. both the game and system have been wonderfully awesome.

when they drop the PS3 $100, then it will certainly be a system seller for me!

my roommate and i got together today and combined his Wii w/ games and accessories and some of my 360 games and a couple controllers, and we got a PS3, The Show 09 and an extra controller for $8 out of pocket. so i'd say yes it is a system seller.

The Show 09, Blu ray....Im sold...gettin my PS3 asap...I just cant play the MLB 2k anymore....MLB 2K is seriously killing XBOX 360 owners and baseball fans

I know I'm gonna buy a PS3 to play thi. So yes, its been a system seller for me. And I skipped every single console since the SNES.

It was the only reason I bought a PS3 so your article holds truth to me.

I brought a PS3 for MLB 07, and never had any regret for it, and MLB09 is insane. I cant believe how authentic this game is. Its scary lol.

[wtfrank83]

Well, I just bought a PS3 to play this game so I guess it is a system seller.

[Dfiant1]

When deciding between getting a 360 and a PS3 when the new systems came out, I picked the PS3 because I love sports games and felt that MLB The Show was by far the best baseball game available. So it was definitely a system seller for me.

Tonight I went out and finally purchased a PS3. I bought it for one reason, MLB 09 The Show. After reading the reviews, the forum posts and watching the videos I was sold. I am a video game sports nut and there was no way I could stomach another year of MLB2k9 on my 3rd xbox (rrod). I now have both systems and can enjoy any of the exclusive titles that hit either. However, there was only one reason I bought the ps3 right now and that was for the Show!!

[osubeavs721]

I bought a ps3 for 3 reasons
In order

1. MLB The Show
2. Hot Shots Golf
3. Blu Ray player

I had a 360 and wii. it was not a tough decision. i buy all my cross platform games on 360.(acheivements all ready been there for years) but now i can play any game so im happy

After 4 hours of The Show - this game is what next gen sports should be. It puts most other franchises to shame. EA should be ashamed of next gen Madden and 2k should be ashamed of MLB2k.

Re: MLB 09: The Show - The System Seller?

I would have to throw my hat in and say it's definitely a system seller. I own a 360 and up until this point I would never have even entertained the thought of purchasing a PS3.
Sure Uncharted looks fantastic, as does Killzone 2. I'd even love to have a blue-ray player for my HDTV. But to tell you the truth I am content for now with the upscaling the 360 does with my DVDs and I've always hated the Playstation controllers.

With 2k officially ****ting the bed with their lackluster baseball offering this year and after reading the glowing reviews about The Show, I actually got the itch to purchase a PS3. I haven't pulled the trigger yet, but man... this game looks too good to pass up.
I was a huge MVP 05 fan and played an entire season without simulating a game. It was one of the best sports games I've ever played and this looks to be an even better experience.

[DiddyGotGrillz]

I officially am now a PROUD owner of a PS3. I bought it ONLY for The Show. I bought it last night. I can tell ya, It was money WELL spent to know that I will NEVER have to play another 2K Sports game.

I bought a PS3 just for The Show series, but I'm rich
